Discipline C: Radiochemistry (Track 1, 2 years 1-5) Abstract: The Nevada State Public Health Laboratory (NSPHL) seeks to maintain existing radiochemistry developmental testing methods while broadening the scope by offering new FDA/FERN analytical food methods to enhance the testing capacity and capabilities at the NSPHL. The laboratory looks to utilize existing equipment to provide testing in alternate matrices of public health significance. Nevada has very distinct areas where radioactive methods would be of interest for testing foods. The Nevada Test Site and several military bases in Nevada all provide opportunities for radiation exposures, which could get into the food and/or water supply. The NSPHL has several pieces of radiochemistry instrumentation and will initiate alpha emitter FDA/FERN methods in year 1. Because equipment for alpha emitter testing will also be used for beta emitter testing, if time and funds permit beta emitter testing will also occur in year 1. In addition, the NSPHL has a gamma spec instrument and will work to develop FDA/FERN methods on that instrument during the life of the funded Award. Therefore, initial capacity in year 1 is being requested and future funding requests will be submitted to support what is implement in year 1 for the remainder of the funding period (years 2-5). Implementation of radiochemistry methods will support the risk-based evaluation of foods and supplement the prevention strategy to determine risks before exposures occur.

学科 C：放射化学（轨道 1，2 年 1-5） 抽象的： 内华达州公共卫生实验室 (NSPHL) 致力于维持现有的放射化学 开发测试方法，同时通过提供新的 FDA/FERN 分析食品扩大范围 提高 NSPHL 测试能力的方法。该实验室希望利用 现有设备可提供具有公共卫生意义的替代基质检测。 内华达州有一些非常独特的地区，放射性方法对食品检测很感兴趣。这 内华达试验场和内华达州的几个军事基地都提供了辐射暴露的机会， 可能会进入食物和/或水源。 NSPHL 拥有多台放射化学仪器，并将启动 α 发射器 第一年采用 FDA/FERN 方法。因为用于 alpha 发射器测试的设备也将用于 beta 如果时间和资金允许，发射器测试也将在第一年进行。 NSPHL 拥有伽玛规格仪器，并将致力于在该仪器上开发 FDA/FERN 方法 在资助奖项的有效期内。因此，正在请求第一年的初始容量，并且未来 将提交资助请求，以支持第一年剩余时间内实施的工作 资助期（第 2-5 年）。 放射化学方法的实施将支持食品和食品的基于风险的评估 补充预防策略，以便在暴露发生之前确定风险。
